Fake It Lyrics - Singles - Townshend Pete

(Pete Townshend/Jon Astley/Billy Nichols/Jon Lind) 

You can fake it 

Hold my hand 

If you take it 

I will understand 

I don't care if you fake it 

I don't give a damn 

I don't care if you fake it 

Don't you understand 

You might laugh at me later 

But why not smile at me now 

Don't ever feel like a traitor 

You're not letting me down 

Fake it, fake it 

I can take it 

Love's just an end, it's the means we feel 

Fake it, fake it 

I can make it 

Why not pretend that your love is real 

Why not fake it? 

I'm going to ask you to act it 

Don't let me see if you're bored 

If you use the right tactic 

You will hear me applaud 

I don't mind what you're thinking 

I'll just guess what you feel 

Don't regret you've been drinking 

To make your pleasure look real 

Fake it, fake it 

I can take it 

I don't believe in eternity 

Fake it, fake it 

Help me make it 

I've taken leave of all dignity 

Why not fake it? 

I am prepared to put up with this 

Because I love you so much 

And I know that you probably don't love me in the same way 

But if you care for me at all 

Then take me in your arms 

Fabricate the way you feel 

I'll just pretend that it's allfor real 

Fake it anyway 

You can fake it 

Hold my had 

If you fake it 

I will understand
